I may be missing something in your reply, but I am *not* wondering how to
associate python with the .pdf file extension. That I know how to do. What I
want to know is how from within the program that I've told windows to run when
the user clicks on the file --- how to access the file that the user wishes to
open. Windows must somehow make that available to my program. How to I access
it. Tomorrow, I'll try doing it an looping through the sys.argvs and see what's
there. maybe it's a simple as passing a path into the called program.
Oh! I see what you mean. You should get the full path and name of the
file in sys.argv, but if you don't, I think what you need to do is add
"%s" to the end of the association definition. My apologies for the
prior misunderstanding.
I don't think it should be "%s", but "%*".
